Abused Female Lead And Beautiful Villainess (Quick Transmigration)

Chapter 70.1. Secretly Getting Married? The Drives-You-Crazy Kind (10)



“Wan Wan, what’s wrong?”

Seeing Shen Wan standing helplessly under the shade of a tree with a small suitcase, Fang Anshuo had a bad feeling.

Recently, everything had been going wrong for him. The company kept missing opportunities or losing projects to competitors. His boss, who used to admire him, seemed to no longer value him.

He was constantly at odds with his coworkers.

Most importantly, things weren’t going smoothly with Shen Wan either. Seeing Shen Wan looking pitiful with her suitcase, he guessed she must have had a conflict with her family.

“Fang Anshuo, I had a fight with my parents. They said if I don’t leave you, I should get out of the Shen family,” Shen Wan pointed at her suitcase. “So I left the Shen family. Now I only have you.”

So, are you moved?

188: I don’t dare to be moved! How could I dare!

Fang Anshuo’s smile visibly faded, his eyes filled with disbelief. Was it really that serious? He thought Shen Wan had merely quarreled with her family.

“Wan Wan, you’re too impulsive.”

Shen Wan glanced at him glumly, “So, are you blaming me for giving up my status as a wealthy young lady and coming out penniless for the sake of our love?”

“No, no, you misunderstood,” Fang Anshuo’s mind raced, quickly coming up with an excuse. “I mean, Uncle and Aunt care about you. We don’t need to rush our relationship, we can take it slow. You really didn’t need to make things so tense with them for my sake. I’d feel guilty about that.”

“But they’ve given me an ultimatum, telling me to choose between you and my status as the Shen family’s daughter. Fang Anshuo, if I chose to remain the Shen family’s daughter, you might never see me again after today. If I didn’t leave, they were going to set me up on blind dates. If a suitable match came along, I might end up with a fiancé. Would that make you happy?”

188: His host is too good at spouting nonsense. When did the Shen couple ever say they’d set her up on blind dates? What’s all this about getting a fiancé?

What a lying mouth!

Master of deception!

Seeing Fang Anshuo’s dumbfounded expression, Shen Wan said angrily, “Tell me, do you not like me that much? If so, I’ll go back right now and be the Shen family’s daughter. If I beg for forgiveness now, my parents might still forgive me. If I wait any longer, I might really lose everything.”

“No, Wan Wan, that’s not what I meant.”

Shen Wan looked at Fang Anshuo suspiciously, “Then what did you mean?”

“Since things are tense with Uncle and Aunt for now, let’s just stay outside for a while.”

Shen Wan finally agreed, nodding, “Then let’s go find a place to live.”

Fang Anshuo initially wanted to suggest that Shen Wan stay at his place. But because he still had some reservations about their status difference, he thought he could use this time to gradually accept it. Besides, Shen Wan didn’t seem to intend to live with him, so he took her to find a place to stay.

Shen Wan naturally chose a high-end apartment with one bedroom and one living room. The monthly rent alone was several thousand, and they needed to pay a deposit plus three months’ rent upfront.

She said she only had twenty thousand yuan on her. Fang Anshuo gritted his teeth and paid the deposit and three months’ rent. He couldn’t help but complain inwardly that she was throwing a rich young lady tantrum for no reason, and he was the one suffering for it.

He endured it for the future!

Shen Wan’s university was about to start, and she had applied to live off-campus. Originally, the off-campus housing was provided by the Shen family, but now she couldn’t take anything with her, so she could only live in this apartment complex. This complex was relatively close to the school.

After renting the apartment, Fang Anshuo started cleaning, wiping windows, and buying new daily necessities, busily running around.

Shen Wan sat on the sofa, cupping her face as she spoke: “Fang Anshuo, thanks to you. Without you, I really wouldn’t know what to do.”

[188 really couldn’t hold back anymore: “Wan Wan, wake up, can you? Without Fang Anshuo, you’d still be the Shen family’s daughter, living in a big villa, able to flirt with girls, hug girls, living a blissful life like an immortal. What would you need to worry about?”]

Shen Wan came to her senses: “Oh, right.”

“So, it’s all Fang Anshuo’s fault that I don’t have a big house to live in anymore, no girls to hug. 188, thanks to you, I have another reason to argue with Fang Anshuo in the future. If it weren’t for him, would I, a wealthy young lady, be out here renting an apartment?”

188: With this skill of twisting words, Fang Anshuo will surely be infuriated.

When everything was tidied up, Fang Anshuo was already sore and tired. Although he didn’t come from a good background, he had never been this diligent in doing housework. Hearing Shen Wan say he was amazing, he wasn’t happy at all.

If possible, he didn’t want to be this amazing.

This young lady was really troublesome, not content with her comfortable life as a wealthy daughter, insisting on coming out to rent an apartment.

Sigh!

After being busy for half a day, Fang Anshuo was already starving. “Wan Wan, everything’s cleaned up. Shall we go out to eat?”

Shen Wan was playing a game on her phone, not even lifting her head as she said, “Fang Anshuo, I’m not hungry yet. When I get hungry, I’ll order takeout.”

Frustrating!

Fang Anshuo: But he was hungry.

Endure!

Fine, young lady, it’s normal not to be considerate and caring about others.

188: Sigh, even this kind of woman has a boyfriend.

“Then since everything’s tidied up here, should I head back to the company?”

“Okay, you can go back,” Shen Wan said, focused on her game. “Fang Anshuo, remember to come check on me every day. Let’s go out for dinner tomorrow night.”

Looking at Shen Wan like this, Fang Anshuo felt a fire burning inside him. He had been busy for half a day, finding her an apartment, paying the rent, cleaning the place, buying daily necessities.

And her?

Curled up on the sofa playing games, apart from praising him for being capable of everything, she didn’t show any concern for him at all. She didn’t even think to pour him a glass of water. Now he was so hungry his stomach was touching his back, while she was fine, sitting there playing games, saying she wasn’t hungry?

Of course she wasn’t hungry when she hadn’t done anything.

What about him? He had hurriedly taken time off work to come pick her up, accompanied her to do so much, hadn’t she seen his hard work? If this woman wasn’t the Shen family’s daughter, who would bother with her?

A drama queen with no conscience!

Fang Anshuo maintained his smile, saying if anything came up, she could call him directly, and he’d be there anytime. Then, with a belly full of anger, he left.

While driving to the company, because he was angry, he ran a red light and was caught by a traffic policeman. He got points deducted, was fined, and got a stern lecture.

Back at the company, he was called to the boss’s office and got another scolding.

When he got to his seat, if it weren’t for the people around, he really wanted to curse out loud. This f**king life, nothing had gone right for him recently.

Endure!

Sooner or later, he would get payback for all of this. Only by enduring the bitterest of hardships could one become the best of men. In the future, he, Fang Anshuo, would no longer have to look at others’ faces or tolerate Shen Wan’s rich young lady temper. He would even control Shen Corporation, maneuvering behind the scenes.

At ten o’clock the next morning, the second day after Shen Wan moved out of the Shen family, the doorbell rang. At that time, she was playing games on the sofa in the living room. Thinking it was Fang Anshuo, she opened the door directly. Outside stood a strange woman in work clothes, about forty years old.

“Who are you?”

Shen Wan really didn’t know who this woman was.

“I’m here to inspect the natural gas pipes,” the middle-aged woman in work clothes said with a smile. “The natural gas pipes need to be checked annually. For your safety, please cooperate, miss.”

“Alright.”

Shen Wan felt it was a bit odd. Why inspect now of all times? She wasn’t afraid this woman had ulterior motives. Following her to the kitchen area, the woman did seem to be seriously inspecting the natural gas pipes.

After about a minute, the middle-aged woman in work clothes told Shen Wan that the pipes were somewhat old and needed to be repaired soon. If not repaired, it could lead to unpredictable dangers.

Shen Wan: “It looks fine to me?”

“Miss Shen, we are professionals. Maintaining the pipes is our company’s responsibility, and we’ll cover all the costs.”

Shen Wan: “Oh, is that so? When will you come to repair it?”

“If Miss Shen will be home this afternoon, we can arrange for staff to come over then.”

“Alright, come in the afternoon then.”

After the middle-aged woman left, Shen Wan held her phone and slowly said to 188: “188, did you scan the natural gas pipes just now?”

[188: “I did scan them. There’s no problem at all. I even scanned the interior. It looks like they were recently replaced. Wan Wan, that woman is suspicious.”]

Shen Wan: “When they send staff over this afternoon, help me scan what they install in my room.”

Shen Wan had already guessed that coming to maintain the natural gas pipes was just a pretext, and installing surveillance was the real purpose. Besides Zhong Jiaren, who else would be so attentive?

“Jiaren is really something, her voyeurism has become an obsession. Is this woman really that infatuated with me?”

[188: “Wan Wan, wake up. She’s just afraid you’ll mess around outside and wants to find a way to keep an eye on you.”]

In the afternoon, staff indeed came to maintain the natural gas pipes. Under the system’s surveillance, they did install monitoring devices.

They couldn’t install anything in Shen Wan’s bedroom as that would easily arouse suspicion. So they installed one in the kitchen, and while Shen Wan wasn’t paying attention, they placed another smaller, more concealed monitor in the corner of the living room near the socket and optical modem.

“Wan Wan, are you just going to stay in your room and let them install monitors in your living room?”

Shen Wan: “Jiaren misses me three times a day if she doesn’t see me. I can’t possibly go to the kitchen to cook myself, right? So, let her secretly install a monitor and watch me longingly when she has time. I’m afraid she’ll go crazy if she can’t see me.”

188: She’s really shameless.

Zhong Jiaren was notified that the monitors had been installed. She quickly set up remote access and opened the corresponding surveillance feed, just in time to see Shen Wan playing games in the living room.

When you’re used to watching someone’s every move every day, and that person suddenly disappears from your sight, you suddenly feel uneasy.

She didn’t think deeply about why this was, attributing this behavior to fear that something might happen to Shen Wan, which was why she secretly sent people to install monitors.

If she had a mirror beside her to look at herself, she would realize things were different from what she thought. The look in her eyes as she stared at the person on the monitor was no longer one of curiosity, but of infatuation.

Apart from being busy, Zhong Jiaren spent all her other time staring at the surveillance footage.

She had originally planned to cause some minor trouble for Shen Wan and Fang Anshuo, to make their lives difficult. But when she saw how Shen Wan and Fang Anshuo interacted, she temporarily had no intention of taking action.

On the second afternoon after moving in, Shen Wan called Fang Anshuo at a specific time, “Fang Anshuo, when you come to pick me up, buy me some fruits and two boxes of snacks. There are still a few days before school starts, and I’m bored at home. I can only pass the time by playing games and eating snacks.”

Fang Anshuo, who had just gotten into his car, felt his smile cracking, but he said gently: “Alright, which kind of snacks and fruits do you want, and how much?” After asking this, Fang Anshuo felt some regret, remembering Shen Wan’s appetite, which wasn’t easily satisfied.

“For snacks, buy two boxes of air-dried beef. Don’t buy too many fruits, just ten pounds of cherries, the imported Black Pearl variety, and two watermelons. The watermelons should be big ones. You know my appetite, too little won’t be enough.”

188: Is this still considered little?

Two boxes of air-dried beef must cost several thousand, right? Doesn’t she know how expensive cherries are? Ten pounds of imported Black Pearl cherries would easily cost several hundred yuan.

Fang Anshuo really couldn’t hold it in anymore. Two boxes of air-dried beef?? He had never bought so much to eat.

Didn’t she know how expensive cherries were? And she wanted the imported Black Pearl variety! She also wanted big watermelons, and two of them, because her appetite was big and one wouldn’t be enough!

He… what else could he do but buy them!

Zhong Jiaren watched Shen Wan smilingly call Fang Anshuo to say these things, and couldn’t help but smile.

Fang Anshuo, did he think it was easy to support a wealthy young lady? It’s just two boxes of beef, ten pounds of imported Black Pearl cherries, and two big watermelons. If it were her, she could eat this every day without a problem.

It seemed this stupid girl really hadn’t learned how ordinary people should live. Her standard of living was still the same as before.

She wanted to see how long Fang Anshuo could hold out.

An hour later, Fang Anshuo first carried up the two boxes of air-dried beef. Forcing out a smile, he asked, “Is it this kind?”

“Yes, this is the kind I used to eat every day,” Shen Wan said with a smile, looking very satisfied.

Fang Anshuo took a deep breath, “Then I’ll go down to get the cherries and watermelons.”

After bringing everything up, Shen Wan had already returned to her room and gotten dressed, hanging her small handbag. This was the only handbag she had brought out. When she saw this bag, her eyes lit up. Perhaps she could find Fang Anshuo to go shopping at the mall on the weekend, saying she needed a new bag or something.

188: This woman is simply outrageous.

Fang Anshuo was a bit tired, both physically and mentally.

To buy those snacks for Shen Wan, he had made several trips, not stopping once in the hot weather, and was now parched.

“Wan Wan, do you have any water? Can you pour me a glass? I’m a bit thirsty.”

Shen Wan looked at Fang Anshuo expectantly, “We haven’t installed a water dispenser at home yet, there’s only soda. Do you want some?”

“Soda is fine.” Fang Anshuo felt even more exhausted, his whole body fatigued, not knowing how to describe his current mood.

Shen Wan turned and brought the soda she mentioned, handing it to Fang Anshuo. Fang Anshuo saw it looked like orange juice, opened the cap and drank it. Unexpectedly, after drinking it, the orange juice was a bit sweet and there wasn’t much of it, making him even thirstier.

“Wan Wan, is there any other drink? This doesn’t seem to quench my thirst.”

Shen Wan shook her head: “This was a free gift that came with the takeout I ordered at noon. There’s only one bottle, and I didn’t order any other drinks.”

“How did you get by yesterday and today without a water dispenser or water to drink?” Fang Anshuo was really speechless. Is this what a real wealthy young lady is like, completely clueless about daily life?

Shen Wan shook her head and said seriously: “I wasn’t thirsty. For breakfast, I ordered congee and small dishes, and asked the restaurant to send a bottle of mineral water along with it. For lunch, I ordered two dishes and a soup, plus a bottle of cola, which is why the restaurant gave me a free bottle of orange juice. I drank the cola, and you just drank the orange juice.”

Fang Anshuo’s mouth was extremely dry and a bit sweet, a discomfort he couldn’t describe. Facing Shen Wan, he was utterly speechless, yet couldn’t bring himself to blame her. If he didn’t treat Shen Wan well now, how could he ever hope to make it big in Shen Corporation?

“This can’t go on. When there’s time, we should buy and install a water dispenser. It’ll be more convenient.”

Shen Wan asked with a clueless expression, “I don’t know how to install it or choose one. Anshuo, can you help me?”

Her demeanor of complete helplessness, relying entirely on Fang Anshuo, made him wish he could take back what he had just said.

“Alright, I’ll come over to install a water dispenser for you when I have time.”

“Anshuo, you’re the best. Weren’t you thirsty? Let’s go eat. There’s water at restaurants.”

By now, Fang Anshuo was so thirsty he didn’t even want water anymore; he wanted to hit someone.

If he could go back in time, knowing that Shen Wan was this kind of clueless rich girl, would he still persist in using her to get into Shen Corporation? He believed he wouldn’t. This kind of troublesome, idiotic woman was just too annoying.

He couldn’t hit her or scold her, yet had to take good care of her. Damn it, it was like bringing home a Buddha statue to worship!

“Pfft!”

Zhong Jiaren heard Shen Wan and Fang Anshuo’s conversation and burst out laughing. It was only the second day. If Shen Wan continued like this, could Fang Anshuo keep enduring?

At the restaurant, Shen Wan naturally ate and drank to her heart’s content. Fang Anshuo wanted to remind her of something several times, but the words caught in his throat, not knowing how to say it without angering Shen Wan.
